It really bums me out that I keep seeing blog posts from technical people like "putting aside the obvious moral and ethical implications of LLMs, I'm interested in evaluating whether they can be useful for my work."

Like "putting aside the obvious moral and ethical concerns of breaking into my neighbours' houses, I'm interested in evaluating whether this can be useful for acquiring other people's valuables."

My dude, if there are obvious moral and ethical implications, how are you able to "put them aside" so easily? I just don't get it

white people have been putting moral and ethical implications on the side for so long it's a second nature to them. You can't build a global hegemony without doing that. That's unfortunately not surprising
